Yesterday was my father-in-law's birthday. We went Jurong Point, Pioneer Wharf Restaurant for a good dinner. The food was good, just that the portion was small, not enough for zhenyu, the big eater! heehee...
Princeton boy and fil's precious Paris came along too. My fil dotes xinxin alot. The moment he saw us, he carried Paris all the way lol. Princeton was not well behaved when we reached the restaurant. He kept shouting, I want noodle, i want biscuits. Zhenyu was really pissed off with him. We scolded him, zhenyu wanted to beat him. But i told him don't spolit father's mood. During the dinner, Princeton ate his noodle and rice. Less irritating though.... But zhenyu wasn't pleased at all, kept scolding him. haiz.... His expectation for his son is very high. First thing he wants from Princeton is to have manners, ie to address people that he get to see everytime, esp elderly. This is a basic manners that children should have. Second, he wants Princeton to be quiet during meals. No talking lol... Thirdly, zhenyu hoped by staring at Princeton, our boy will behaved and stop all his nonsenses.
I agreed with hubby that Princeton needs to be disciplined. But we need to be patient... we need to focus. I want our boy to understand what is right and what is wrong. I do not wish to keep shouting at him. So most of the time, i will talk to him and make him understand. But at times, this boy really need to be caned. Last nite he refused to changed up, i took the cane out and beat his leg. He cried bitterly, then changed up reluctantly.
Last night before Princeton fell asleep, he greeted everyone he knew "gdnite". I wanted to laugh out but i didn't, as he was in a sleepy mode le. I need to closed my eyes (half closed) so that he will sleep too. Princeton was so sweet that he kissed me afew times, and said i love mummy (both in English & mandarin). He did that every night though, but last nite he added sorry mummy. Then with some bb words. I guessed he was trying to tell me he was sorry for making me angry!! I felt so touched and loved:)@ 31months, Princeton had learnt his ABC, and 1 to 10. I will start teaching him how to tell time. He likes watches, I'm going to buy him his fav cartoon watch. Hope this will boost his interest in learning.
My school will start tmr, and the first lecture will be Econ. Pray that i can meet good project mates!
